I like strange things.

Have some beer flavoured tea (tasted like lemonade actually....) and point
at what you want to eat and the cook prepares it for you.
You want frogs or sea cucumber?

Wig shop in Taipei.

My new hobby: Japanese bath salts!
Japanese love to take baths to relax, and they love gadgets. So these two combined
bring us the weirdest bath salts:
You have bath balls with a little toy inside (surprise!), bath salts with lovely smells
for special occassions (romance?) and just plain weird bathsalts, often with food or
beverages as a theme. Every night I try out another one!

So far I've had a pink champagne and cheesecake bath, but this was one of the strangest:
INDIAN CURRY!
Unfortunately also one of the most disappointing; It turned the water slightly yellow
(ehm... yeah.... lovely....) and didn't smell like anything, or maybe a little bit like soap.
No toy of a naked Indian guy and no curry smell either. (But maybe I should've TASTED it!)

Hualien

The past days we've spent at Hualien, a smaller city more to the south east of Taiwan.
Their main attraction is Taroko, a long gorge through gorgeous mountains.
For some trails they made us wear helmets, in case a stone decided to drop on your head.

Frog dish

A green 'hot pot' restaurant in Hualien.
(no, we didn't eat frogs or flies, but fish and beef noodle soup)

Crowded...

Taipei is great, but not during weekends...

Taiwanese sushi

No, I haven't been lazy with drawing. I've just been stuck in a hotel without
internet connection for my notebook. But now I'm in a new hotel and back in
business! Here I am with the mascot of the Sushi Express in Ximen, Taipei.

Our first dinner in Taiwan, because I love sushi and because it's so
convenient (no Chinese menus to be deciphered).
